Just built five of the official gw models of this. Five to go and I'm not looking forward to it at all! Resin models are terrible. Flack everywhere and cut myself twice. Definitely just converting next time.

My biggest gripe with Resin (other than what you said) is the cleaning it thoroughly, and bad casts/warps.

The releasing agent that sticks to the resin has prevented primer/paint from sticking to my Forgeworld stuff. I know Duncan had a Blood Angel "How to Paint a Rhino" video that I followed and he recommended (and showed) washing the resin pieces with warm water, soap, and a toothbrush.

I had a Razorback Lascannon Forgeworld upgrade kit that I didn't clean well enough and paint on one side of that model just didn't apply. Almost like there was an invisible barrier. Paint was repelled from it.

I just thoroughly clean all my resin items now. Haven't had any issues with paint sticking since.
